"You can never tell an interesting story that involves ordering a salad." would in most cases be more an odd statement that is thrown around and mostly forgotten. However, in this case, it's just plain wrong. What is the worst that could happen when you have lunch with a friend and order such a simple dish? Some unpleasant events actually.


All she wanted to do was spend her day in her pajamas and binge watch some TV. Her friend, Florence, decides they should get wings or a salad, and that is just what they do. But when Florence gets up to use the bathroom and later found tied up in an alley, things go from strange to bad to worse. An alien obsessed with stuffing them and with powers unmatched by this girl's pocketknife, she must be cunning if she wants to make it back home. And maybe along the way prove an odd saying wrong.
